Kolkata, Sept 13 (IBNS): Protesting several issues, at least 18 Left parties on Wednesday held a march to city police headquarters at Lalbazar in Kolkata.

Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) MLA Sujan Chakraborty said, "We have called for the rally today to protest against several actions of the TMC-ruled government in the state and against the communal activities of BJP in West Bengal as well."

"As the Kolkata Police booked our activists, who took part in CPI-M's rally to Nabanna on May 22, and charged them under several fake cases, we are holding this rally to city police headquarters and will submit deputation to the police commissioner," Chakraborty added.

Following the rally, a Left delegation met Joint Commissioner (Hq) Rajiv Kumar and handed over a memorandum to him.

Left leaders, however, said that their movement on these demands will be strengthened in future.
